Apple's music creation tool for Mac, GarageBand, was given a minor update on Thursday which reintroduces the ability to export songs in the MP3 file format, while also offering new drum sounds and enhanced accessibility.

GarageBand version 10.0.2 is now available for download on the Mac App Store. In addition to adding the option to export in MP3 format, it is also said to improve stability and address what Apple has characterized as "minor issues."

The free update also includes three new virtual "Drummers" and accompanying drum kits for the genres of rock, songwriter, and R&B. These new additions will be available to those who have purchased or choose to buy the complete set of GarageBand sounds, loops and drummers via a one-time in-app purchase.

GarageBand is one of three options in Apple's consumer-oriented iLife suite, being joined by iPhoto and iMovie. All three applications come free with the purchase of a new Mac.

The last update to GarageBand arrived in November, bringing minor tweaks and performance enhancements to Apple's casual music creation tool. Version 10 of GarageBand was released on the same day as Apple's latest Mac operating system, OS X Mavericks, last October, alongside revamped version of iMovie and iPhoto.

It could have been, If I wanted to open iTunes and add something to it, which I didn't, because my external HDD that holds my library was not attached and I really didn't want the hassle of media folder location defaults changing, and iTunes Match trying to run when files are missing, and having to awkwardly change my "import" settings in iTunes from Apple Lossless to MP3, then finally go back and right click > Create MP3 version, then again Right click > Show In Finder, then copy the file to my Desktop so I could FINALLY Upload the damn mp3 where it needed to go.

No, the free App AllOfMP3 served the purpose of a quick mp3 conversion much, much faster and hassle free than iTunes could have in this case.
